Re: Milk and 2 year olds
It varies but DD just turned 2 and get anywhere from 8 to 16 oz of milk. She also get about 2 cups or more of water a day.
I'm curious to see how much milk other 2 year olds drink as well.

Re: Milk and 2 year olds
My two year old kind of weaned himself off of milk. He will ask for some when he wants it and when we go out to eat he gets some. I use to give him a sippy cup or two a day of milk but i noticed he wouldn't drink it and it would be thrown out. I'm thinking I should start a cup of milk before bed, before I brush his teeth. I just feel like i should probably try to push it a bit more. He is already over 30 pounds and growing wonderfully.

Re: Milk and 2 year olds
My 2 year old is addicted to milk. She drinks like 2 gallons a week. She eats regular meals and is healthy so although not ideal it is what it is

Re: Milk and 2 year olds
My DS still has 3 cups a day. I think about 21 oz total? I'm not exactly sure how much is in the cups I give him. It's just a routine that we've gotten used to and I'm not in the mood to try and break it right now.

My son drinks about 2 gallons a week also.
Now that the weather is turning warmer I thought he would wean off the milk a bit and nope, hasn't happened.

He drinks a cup when he wakes up and a cup before bed - prob 16ish oz a day. He also drinks lots of water throughout the day.

He drinks 2 cups a day - about 18 oz. Hets a cup for breakfast & one for dinner. Some days he asks for more with breakfast or dinner, and I'll give it to him, so it really varies by day. For the most part though he's drinking about 18 oz.

Mine too! And she is tiny so i STILL give her whole milk! She is closer to 2.5. My 13 month old still takes three 8-9 ounce bottles of milk daily too. On top of the milk they both love cheese and yogurts and eat meals and snacks

Re: Milk and 2 year olds
3 cups a day, and he loves his milk. We still have him on whole milk because he is underweight as recommended by our ped. My 3.5 year old is the same, whole milk, 3 cups a day.

Re: Milk and 2 year olds
Typically, 1 cup with breakfast. Sometimes she drinks it fast and will ask for a 2nd.
